I've got some spare bits for the Tilton clutch at home--Peyote had one
originally but I replaced it with the Quartermaster rally two plate. You can
have the bits, but the old Tilton clutch is pretty brutal. The QM setup is
progressive, responsive, and good for about 500 HP I'd guess.

Jack,
My car came to me with a Tilton clutch and flywheel. It has a
circle-track-type coaxial release so I'm not familiar with your throwout
arrangement. The former owner warned me in 2000 to go easy on it because
Tilton no longer makes them for TRs. If you find out anything different, I'd
love to know too. But assuming it's true the trail is pretty cold by now I'm
afraid.
If you're interested in the coaxial arrangment as an option I could take some
pictures and dimensions when I pull the trans for overdrive work, probably
sometime in August.

I am working on a TR4 with a Tilton clutch. The throwout bearing
failed and ruined several pieces, including the sleeve upon which the
bearing is mounted. It appears to be a special sleeve, not the TR3 -
TR4or the TR4A. I need to find a source for this piece or have one made.
I've talked with Tilton, and their current tech people have no
knowledge of the Triumph application.
Somebody out there must be selling them specifically for the TR cars.
Can anyone on the list help me with a name of a supplier who may know
about the TR application?
